Default Reinforcing the front cap

So my 2720 TM has the mach ac unit and seems to be too much weight on that front cap. Especially that TM cut such a huge hole in the roof right on the seam to installbthe AC unit. There seems to be a slight sag right under the AC. What I wpuld like to do is reinforce that area to give it extra rigidity.

Has anyone done anything like this? What I am thinking is to use plate aluminum to keep weight to a min. Then push up on the top half and screw in some screws through the aluminum into the wood behind the seam bag.

This is purely preventative but figure it can use a little reinforcement in that area. So it does not worsen.

If anyone has done this or can offer any suggestions wpuld be great.
